You must have been aware of the growing need to conserve our forest. One of the ways to ensure that fewer trees are cut down is recycling waste paper. This is the reason why our Conversation Club has embarked on our Old Newspaper Collection Campaign.

Perhaps you would be interested in knowing what will happen to your old newspaper after they arrive at the paper recycling center.

Firstly, the old newspapers are soaked in water and then put into the hydropulper. This machine, which has rotating blades, cuts the paper finely into a pulp.

Next, the pulp is fed into the washer. Here, all dirt is washed off. Staples and clips are removed. The pulp is then fed into the chemical tank where bleach is added to it. This whitens the pulp.

After being bleached, the pulp is passed through rollers. All excees wateris now squeezed out of the pulp.This makes the drying process faster. The drying is done in a dryer. The pulp comes out of the dryer as large sheets of paper, which are rolled on spools.

This recycled paper is used for many things, for example, to make cardboard boxes, egg cartons , toilet rolls, poster paper, and even gift wrapping paper. When you consider that you have no further use for your old newspaper, you will be glad to contribute them to our campaign.
